    Yes my son has a digital cam corder so I could cut you a CD and
 send it to you and let you do it.
   Heres another cool shore final on lake Union with the space needle

Great picture Ken. Thanks.

BTW I just checked Francois's movie. Two problems. The sound level is way
down low and people want to hear what a rotary sounds like.  Two; it is in wmv
format which almost no editing program can handle. At least I have not found
one yet that can handle wmv format. mpeg is the preferred format for down
loading and editing.
